Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 488: Foreign Language Winner

As soon as the word Grand Slam came out.

The whole room fell silent in an instant.

The two male actors stopped what they were doing.

The three actresses were simply stunned.

Grand Slam.

The Grand Slam of the three European awards and the Oscars. With so many stars, entertainers and artists in the world, how many can achieve this level?

"If Julianne Moore really wins the Oscar for Best Actress, will she be the only one to achieve this?"

"If you mean the best actress, I think so."

hiss--

The sound of air conditioners being pumped directly contributes to global warming.

At this moment, Da Tiantian suddenly thought of something and suddenly blinked at Zhou Mo.

Zhou Mo also nodded in response to her.

Da Tiantian understood everything instantly.

A few days ago, the client that Zhou Mo's medical beauty company received was not actually Nicole. In fact, Zhou Mo invited a group of people, and they were all actors in the film and television industry whom he had met in Cannes and the United States in the past.

Moore was among them.

Now it seems that perhaps Zhou Mo had obtained some information at that time.

Qin Zhuo clenched his fingers tightly together, sighing with emotion.

"An international Grand Slam, surpassing the three European gold medals in terms of gold content, unprecedented in history, if I can get this honor..."

Zhou Mo said bluntly: "Don't even think about it. Moore's award is the result of luck, acting skills, background, and resources. Others can't envy it.

Thinking too much is actually not good for you, just be yourself.”

Qin Zhuo reacted and nodded.

The most important thing is to be yourself.

International star Zhang didn't say anything, but her eyes were still flickering.

Zhou Mo looked at her and said, "Sister Ziyi, what are you thinking about? Seeing that Aunt Moore's grades are so good, do you also want to make a bid for the Best Actress award?"

International Zhang nodded: "Yes, but unfortunately there is no chance."

Zhou Mo joked, "If it doesn't work, why not ask Weinstein for help? Ask him to help you run it. Find a good time, and maybe you'll succeed."

International Zhang shook her head: "It's because I don't want to find him, so I said there is no chance. His price is too high, I can't afford it."

In fact, it’s not that she can’t afford it, but that after paying it, she will be left with nothing, and even have to borrow a large sum.

The risk is too great, she doesn't want to gamble.

Qin Zhuo, who was listening to the conversation between Zhou Mo and Zhang Yimou, asked in surprise, "Weinstein, is that the top producer?"

"it's him."

Qin Zhuo understood in his heart that even though she debuted late, she had actually been on the international stage several times.

I also know a little about these things.

Weinstein's name is well-known internationally.

A gold medal producer, a machine for producing best actor and actress...

Qin Zhuo's best understanding of Weinstein was back in 99, when his film Shakespeare in Love defeated Saving Private Ryan in the Oscar-winning Best Picture competition.

The heroine of "Shakespeare in Love", who played Pepper Potts in "Iron Man", also won the Best Actress award for the movie, and she can be called the most "watery" actress in history.

This example was directly brought up and discussed by their teacher back then.

This shows how famous Weinstein is.

Tan Zhuo asked tentatively: "Then let's follow him..."

Zhou Mo also nodded directly.

"Yes, there has been contact."

The leading actors in the room are all old foxes with thousands of years of experience. They basically know everything about the entertainment industry and there is no need to hide anything.

Make it clear, let everyone know the inside story, and prevent them from saying the wrong thing. Zhou Mo knew Weinstein, and it was Quentin who introduced him.

Quentin and Weinstein are old partners.

From his debut work "Pulp Fiction" to most of his later well-known films, Quentin was basically working with Weinstein.

Zhou Mo got to know Weinstein not only for this year's Oscar for Best Foreign Language Award, but he actually had another idea in mind.

Next year's Palme d'Or.

Yes.

Weinstein's business scope is not limited to the Oscars. In fact, he also operated the Palme d'Or.

It’s just that his performance in the Oscars business was so dazzling that people thought that this guy only dealt in the Oscars.

"Just let everyone know about this matter, and avoid raising any issues during interviews in the future," Zhou Mo warned.

Everyone nodded and kept it in mind.

After dinner.

Everyone's hearts were completely calm and they returned to their rooms.

Before leaving, Zhang Ziyi deliberately fell behind, and waited until everyone disappeared before she said to Zhou Mo, "Ah, thank you anyway, Director Zhou. It's a pity that I can't win the Best Actress award, but I'm already very satisfied to win the award."

Zhou Mo looked at Zhang Ziyi's condition and knew that it was a pity for her.

I thought that for the sake of our cooperative relationship, I tried to persuade him with a few words.

"In fact, Zhang Guoji, your choice not to cooperate with Weinstein was actually the right one."

International Zhang looked up, wanting to hear what Zhou Mo had to say.

Zhou Mo said bluntly: "International Zhang, you must be aware of your popularity in China. Weinstein's reputation is also four words: rotten and flowery. If you really want to cooperate with him, not to mention that you will get nothing, it may also directly reduce your reputation in China to the freezing point.

If you were still in Hollywood, it wouldn't matter, but now that you're back, it's simply not worth it to be associated with him."

International Zhang smiled bitterly and said, "Director Zhou, you are really...speaking fast."

Zhou Mo said frankly: "Because it is more meaningful to tell you the truth at this time."

International Zhang quickly adjusted her mindset.

"Yes, you are right, Director Zhou. Working with him is definitely not worth the effort."

After a pause, he added, "But this guy's reputation isn't very good, Director Zhou, is it really okay for us to cooperate with him?"

Zhou Mo nodded. Weinstein had indeed breached the contract.

And there have been quite a few breaches of contract.

Xiao Gangpao has criticized this guy many times because he has been screwed so badly.

Fortunately, Zhou Mo is not a weakling.

"Don't worry, it's not a big problem. You can make much more money by cooperating with me than by cheating me." Zhou Mo was very calm.

He signed a contract with Weinstein, and the amount on it was far higher than anything he had ever signed before.

It seems that Zhou Mo made a decision that "goes against ancestral teachings."

But in fact only he himself knows.

That fat guy Weinstein will basically go to jail in a few years.

His collaboration with Weinstein probably had not started by that time.

Therefore, everything was arranged clearly.

then……

Five days later.

At the Oscars.

It's time to present the award for Best Foreign Language Film.

Nicole Kidman spoke slowly amid the heavy breathing of the entire crew.

"Best Foreign Language Film Award Winner: "In My Song"."
